Answers :

Did you check to see if the beater brush was rotating properly?\015\012When it doesn't it usually causes the belt to burn and break, though I do not believe you had a belt issue.\015\012\015\012If you remove the beater brush like you did to replace the belt, give it a good cleaning and add some WD40 to the two end clips that hold it to the vacuum.\015\012Twist the beater brush and the end pieces to be sure it moves freely and reassemble being sure the belt is put on correctly.\015\012\015\012If you find this solution helped you, I would appreciate a Thumbs Up from you.\015\012\015\012Be well,\015\012Paul

Hoover Tempo Widepath Upright Vacuum - Blue

I have a morphy richards upright hoover model 7333 and i cant get to the belt to see if it is either broken or just come off the runners, i have lost my instructions and cant get the things apart to have a look, does anyone know anything about these hoovers? many thanks, Carina.

The brush roller stops turning and I can smell the belt burning, then it will catch and start working normal. I looked under the plate to check the belts and they looked okay and no hang ups of string or anything. The only thing that seemed weird was that the smaller belt that actually attaches and turns the roller is a bit loose. The larger belt is tight but looks like its the one that is burning and causing the smell.

I have a Eureka 4870GZ. It turns on, but the brush roller doesn't move. The belt looks fine. I do have an extra belt and would try replacing the old belt, but I can't get the old one off the motor shaft or the new one on. I called Eureka customer service. The lady said there's supposed to be a small space between the motor shaft and the outside edge of the vacuum where I can slip the old belt off and the new one on. I don't see it. It looks like the motor shaft goes into a recessed place in the

The brush is not moving on the vaccume. I'm pretty sure that the belt is busted. I cannot see how to get the shroud off, so that I can get to the roller and belt. It all looks and feels like one piece, even when I start removing screws. It is a bag-less vac. The model number is - v1310rs. Thank you.

Hoover F6025900 Steam Vac Widepath LS, I own this steam vac and I found bits of rubber under the machine when I turned it on, smelled like burned rubber from a belt? Can you please tell me if there is a belt on this carpet cleaner and if so, how to access the belt? I have taken out some screws and still cant get to the belt?
Thanks

Well there is no belt, and not sure what the rubber would be from, everything is plastic or metal. Unless it is really an electrical smell, which means the motor is going bad.\015\012\015\012 ...

How to install the belt on U8188900. It has a cam on the electric motor where the belt gos and there is a center looks like a pully and the part where it fits on the brusher. How do you get the belt around the center pully?

Roller brush does not rotate if there is a belt I can't open that part of the vacuum to look. Vacuum is new but I vacuumed a string that caused the brush to stall for a moment. I could smell like when a belt gets hot or burns it's a surfacemax 300.

I have a Fantom 500 DX and it seems that it doesn't pick up anything anymore. It looks like machine is working well, but it doen't pick up. I would like to take to the repair guy, but I don't know where to find one. Machine is good, it might need jsu some maintenance. Please advise. I live on Long Island, NY. PLease advise. I changed the belt about 6 months ago, but all other parts are original.

I have a Miele S1721 Powerhouse upright vacuum. When the belt broke I took it into the shop (because when i tried to replace the belt, the tension was so tight I couldn't get it back together!!). When I got it home I DISCOVERED THAT THE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT DIDN'T WORK anymore. It seems like it's set really hight, because it no longer contacts and brushes the carpet. So it's now useless. I went back to the shop and the tech denied that there was anything wrong. (I didn't have the vac with me). No

Hi\015\012The Miele uprights (S170 and upwards) with the Powerhouse title are ALL Panasonic uprights which have been at one time sold in the UK. Therefore the upright may use TWO drive belts which need to be looked at: Take off the sole plate a ...

I need a replacement belt for a V1315 Shark Roadster Vacuum cleaner. Looks like there's no way to get one. Is there a compatible belt that will fit this vacuum?

Motor is sparking and smells like burning rubber. When it first happened I thought the vacuum had something jamming the beater bar. That was the smell it had, like when the belt gets burned. But when we turned it over, it wasn't jamming. Took off the base plate and turned it on. The motor area is sparking and it makes a weird noise (I assume that is because the motor fails and restarts). I looked for loose wires, can't find any. I believe I need some sort of part replaced, maybe even a n

From sound and description most possible is motor is burnt up sparks usually mean metal on metal either bearing or bushings went on motor if u can jiggle the shaft thats bearing if u rotate the shaft by hand and feel and or hear rough grinding the br ...

Oreck Upright Hi Redev, I'm not sure what model I have (about 6 years old...upright, looks like the one in the picture). I changed the belt (which was torn) and then the next time I used it, it cut off on me. Now if won't turn on at all. (I turn the switch on and off and nothing happens as if it is not plugged in but it is!). I noticed at the top where the power cord enters the handle, it is all frayed. Could the electrical wires have detached? Anything you think I should check before taking it

The cord could be bad and will ahve to be replaced. It would have to have a problem inside the handle or down by the motor. ...

Make a very loud noise when I try to vaccuum the carpet. It sounds like it's something in the brush up front. Belts look good and obstructions are gone. Not sure what else to do.

I own a Hoover Turbo power windtunnel 6500 12 amp vacuum, and it doesn't seem to be vacuuming up the dirt. I tried getting all of the hair unstuck from roller at the bottom and looked at the belt, and it's not broken. Is there anything else I can do?

The spin scrubs quit working all of a sudden while i was steam vaccuming my carpet, there is a little dog hair in there but it doesnt look like enough to completely clog it, how do i get them to spin again?

Our Bissell Cleanview II 3576M does a great job except that the filter cup below the dirt cup gets full very fast and the dirt cup barely has anything in it. To clean the whole house, I have to empty the dirt cup and clean the filter several times. It didn't use to work this way. It seems like something is missing, a gasket or seal maybe? I don't think dirt, hair and debris should be going straight to the lower cup and bypassing the upper. I looked at the user guide but can't see why it's happen

My Kirby Heritage II vacuum is not picking up dirt up out of the carpet like usual, and I have to keep setting it lower to pick anything up. I finally get it to such a low setting that it starts sucking the carpet up and makes a whirring noise, and starts smelling. Every time this happens, we find the belt has been burned. We are wondering if the brush roll inside with the brushes that pick up dirt are worn out and too short?

I have a bissell pro heat and it wont dispense water. the little red thing wont spin and it looks like the belt doesn't move. within a few minutes you smell it getting hot.

Changing belt How do I do that? It looks like I would have to take the screwdriver to the bottom and enter the engine compartment. I'm not sure that I feel confident to take this machine all apart and be able to get it back together again.

The belt wont turn...i cant get in to the inside to check to see if the belt isnt on the roller...how do i get up in there..i took the bottom plate off and you still cant get inside...
thx

Belt type Ok, thank you for the help! I did have the top off, but did not know the taking the motor loose trick, thank you for that! Now I have a couple of more questions, and thank you so much for all of the help! I got a belt from sears, & the sales guy sold me an off brand belt. It looks just like the belt that broke, although do you have to force the motor back down into place? I think it may be the wrong belt? I have looked on the Hoover website & they do not even have parts listed fo
